Low Scores

There has been a survey done across the United States concerning recent SAT scores and the results have been that students across the U.S. have drop numbers in both math and reading. why is it that these scores have took a drop and what does this mean over all. I guess students must be getting distracted from their studies and are not really putting their all into what is most important.Now a days students can find them selves to get distracted very easily with the peer pressure and all this gadgets like the side kick and all the fashion that are out there. There are alots of students that must also confront the issues of drugs, sex and alcohol and a bad decision can have very serious results. Students in today's schools have alot of challenges and must be focus because its affecting scoring in big exams like the SAT's which are made to evaluate the students level of academic skills both in math and reading. With growing economies like China and India we must stay ahead of the game because the competition is growing at fast rates in all Fields especially math.

The heat in my apartment has made it a haven for some these summer bugs.Just today as i got home from a long day i turn on the lights and notice, one of those very big cockroaches running across my room Now keep in mind that their is no food in my home i don't cook or eat hardly anything in my home so I'm wondering why are they here. I tries to spray it with some oven cleaner it is a very powerful chemical i don't have bug spray so i have to improvise. As i try to move in on the roach it ran so fast with its little legs and went behind my wall where i cant reach it.So as i sit down to write in my blog from the corner of my eye i notice something move real fast, so i start to stare in that direction and i get up to look and it was a very large centipede running by my shoes. I know how fast they can move so i grab the spray and position my self where in case it heads in my direction i can move quickly;it ran but the centipede went towards a corner of the wall where there is no holes for it to escape, i sprayed it and no more than 5 seconds it just froze and died i really hate those bugs. I then notice it curl up and just stood there so i used a piece of paper to pick it up and throw it in the toilet, what a night,kind of creepy.

The situation with terrorist

What is the United states to do with the situation concerning the problem we have with terrorists across seas. The war in Iraq is a war that is fighting people who are protecting their home land that they have love for. How can you blame these people from fighting for what they they believe. They have been label as terrorist so i guess this is alright to kill them and declare war against them. The price we are paying for this war is greatly regrettable lives are being lost on both sides of the fence; especially the Iraqi people who really suffer so much before the war and now that is going on. All this is doing is an increase of hatred and violent consequences which is foreseeing no resolution insight. The actual treat has now risen do to the administrations actions. The real enemy is in the Pakistan border; the war must be brought to the ermines door and nothing else. Its been said that the enemy is gaining power and numbers through out the war. Bush had said that the terrorists had no place to hide or set up shop, on the contrary they are doing what they want and we must take affirmative action, immediately.

Learning new things

Its a great thing when a person learns something they have been wanting to learn and once you do its a great feeling. For example i just learned how to ride a motorcycle, it a great feeling. Ive been wanting to learn how to ride a bike for such a long time. I love the speed and the feeling of being free so that's a exciting feeling that i have wanted to feel. My friend is the owner of the bike and he has been giving lessons for a while but today i went on my own and it felt good. The other part about riding a motorcycle is how much power this machine has and you are basically in full control of it. The beauty of a bike would be in the eye of the beholder because there are alots of amazing things that the bike presents like its slick design and speed as well for the technology implemented is pretty cool. There is one major fact that individuals must not take for granted and that is the power beneath you can cause death if not respected; so a person must always follow road speed limits and wear protective equipment.

Today i went out to downtown Manhattan and decide to visit a few friends that i meet about a year ago. It's pretty interesting that they treat me with open arms and sort of a family feeling. I specifically went to see some dress cloths that i need and went with few friends. We went to this cool diner where the food was so fresh and everything that was served with the food had a barbecue flavor to it. Alot of the stores and eatery's out there are kind of old and have been around for a couple of years. I would Love to live out there but the rent is to damn high for a little box of an apartment. But if you have money and can afford to live out there you will definitely find your self a very nice pad.

I was taking a lesson this week on making rice it was pretty funny because every time i try making rice i simply burn it. I must of tried like 50 times and every try was a burning result. So a friend of mine came to NYC on vacation so she took the time to show how to make a basic pot of white rice. I took the first try at it and like always it didn't come out good at all, but i must mention that i didn't burn it but it came out all soggy and wet the rice was all stuck together. So with some patience my friend guided me step by step. Everything from putting the right amount of salt and some onions to add flavor; but also the right size of flame which is what i have a problem with. I think i got the way in making white rice but its definitely going to take me some more tries and alot more pots that I'm going to have to purchase ,so wish me luck.

The summer feels like its over the weather has changed very quickly it feels like it went from 90 degrees to 50. I get sick real quick when the temperature changes so fast. The mornings have been very hard because i came out with a t-shirt thinking it was going to be hot, but the opposite it was so cold. I like the winter but not when the weather start to cause physical pain on the skin. I like the changes in weather in N.Y. but when it gets to hot or to cold it is hard to live with because it is so uncomfortable. Well it is time to bring out the sweaters and long johns because its going to be another cold winter in the big apple. Time to deal with the snow in the streets making it hard to drive and walk through but its the way of live here, it would be nice to talk a trip somewhere warmer like the Bahamas.

It was in the news today that a very famous football player will plead guilty to charges of killing dogs that were no longer performing any better after they were put to fight. Some of the dogs were drowned of just put down. I really don't understand how people could be so cruel and hurt an animal in this manner. The laws will definitely take care of these people that break these laws and the punishment will be proper to these offenders. What makes it weird is that this was a man with money a very rich football player he could have been doing something else with his money instead of putting dogs to fight. It is pretty sure that he was not involved in this for the money because he has millions but it must of been for the pleasure of watching dogs fight to the death and now the law was broken and he will have to pay.

The news is out that the incident with the miners being trap under ground has taken a very drastic turn. On top of the miners being trap of about two weeks with no water or air the situation has now even gotten worst because there were three rescuers that have now died in the mine. This is a very sad time for the family members who have love ones in the mines. I think about how a person can even survive for even a day being trap. There must be a better way to make it safer for workers to go underground because this has be going on for a while and it is a very sad circumstances. The search and rescue has been stop for indefinitely do to this tragic events that have taken place. I sometimes wonder if all this work is necessary for these men and women to put there lives on the line for their search of resources if this is the case.

My stepson has gain some weight and this has me concern especially now a days with all the food that has unhealthy fat and also i know that he likes to eat burger king, Wendy's and all these fast food restaurants.
The YMCA was a place i use to go to and go swimming this is also where i really perfected my swimming skills. I also lifted weights there and also played handball down to martial arts ,there are so many great programs that they offer.

There has been a recent launch by NASA and things have not necessary gone as planned. There was a problem with a piece of metal hitting the bottom of the shuttle which torn a hole on the surface of the skin. So now the shuttle has a big problem because the crew can't coming into earth for landing until they get it fix. Ever since that tragic event of Columbia exploding in mid air in 2003 NASA has taken the necessary steps to prevent this tragedy from reoccurring. Ever time these missions are made to outer space it can be a risk taker. But it must be great to venture to outer space, to view the stars out there and the deep black space that has not been explored yet.

Well i think i have choose a topic that is a bit unusual and that the Vietnam war. But I'm talking about the specific topic of the bombings that took place the destruction of the forest and the damage it did to the environment. The trees and Forest that was wiped out by these big aircraft dropping tremendous bombs that were made for one and one reason only and that was to destroy.There were many different types of bombs that were used for different purposes of destruction weather to wipe out human life or forest that had to be cleared. There has also been a great affect on the people that live in these remote areas and the diseases that have spread. Even though the war was about 30 years ago there are children that are still suffering today with the effects that the bombings had on human life. There must of been thousands of bombs drop in Vietnam more then WWI or WWII and i believe more than the present war in Iraq.

What a mess it was this morning the rain was like a water fall, like they say when it rains it pours. I tried to take the off from work but i could not so i had to go to work and deal with the mess out there, let me tell you it was not easy. There was flooding all over the city it was real bad . I start to think how what if we got hit with a very bad disaster storm this city will crumble that is something i don't even want to think about. The sad part is that there was a death do to this storm a lady got stuck in a flood while in her car and was hit from behind the impact killed her. I tell you that people can be real stupid knowing that a storm is in affect people this drive faster than what they should, that gets me pissed off. My prayers go out to her and her family. The bad news too is that the rain has not completely gone away we still have storms to worry about.

The home run record was broken tonight by Barry bonds weather he used or did not use performance enhancing drugs is a question that only Bonds himself can answer and it all depends on his morals and if he can live a lie. But we are not anyone to judge this man the sports world has been invaded by these drugs for a very long time and I'm sure that many records that been broke were done with the help of these drugs. But it is a great honor to be alive to see history happen in front of our eyes and baseball has such a historical legency. Hank Arron was the king of home runs and now its Bonds so much respect to him for this great accomplishment. Steroids are something that has to be brought under control in the sports world cause it takes away all the glory of what man/women can conquer in sports so rules and punishment must be upgraded to make sure this does not continue. Especially for our youth that look up to these great contenders so they don't cheat the fans and especially them self's.

I was listening to a musical concert on the radio that was all jazz instruments. Everything from piano,flute, guitar, just about any instrument you can think about. The music was so relaxing and very exciting to listen to. The music was provided by cd 101.9 which is a radio station that just plays soft jazz it is a very good radio station because the music it plays is stress free and puts the mind into a very calm state. At times they give special concerts with a large selection of artist that play all types of instruments. My favorite instrument is the piano because of it's soft and smooth sound, i've been wanting to play the piano for years. I really like classical music as well and would like to learn to play a few famous pieces of classical notes from Mozart to Beethoven. These were some of the greatest writers of classical music they were smart with the music they wrote and played, i intend to learn how to play piano one day.

I just did something that makes me feel so good and that was send some money to a charity in Africa to help some children out there. We here in American have it so good and there are people who really need alot of help. We forget what we have at times this is why we have to give a little something to those that have nothing not even clean water. In the world today there are people who dont even have the basic needs like food or water and that is a shame in the world we live in today. So i do it because its a little step to help those people who cant really help them selves and i expect nothing in return, it comes straight from the heart. We sometimes forget about the less fortunate but we as humans must stick together to make the world a better place to live because the day is going to come when it will all end and alot of people are goin to do alot of wishing.

My cus took a trip to texas and told me he had a great time. He left for a week and visited San Antonio he told me the temperature out there is very hot. He also told me that people out there are over weight because all you see is fast food places. He mention how there are alot of mexicans out there and how the water is dry it can dry up your skin thats how hot it is in Texas. But one thing that he really liked out there was the standard of living is low the housing are very in expensive out and you can get a very big house. The job to have out there is working for a steel mill and you can live very good in Texas it's like having a corporate job here in New York City. He also told me that the rent is cheap out there he is now planning to move and live out there with his family. He visited a town right outside of the mexican border where he told it was totally beautiful, the water was clear as can be and teh beaches were so beautiful out there so maybe if i get a chance i will take a trip out there and get to enjoy Texas.

A thought ran across my mind after it rained today. The air seems cleaner and fresh as if the city was washed from all the bad ordor from the garbage and the pollution in the air. I started to think about the massive garbage that is produce on the daily basis and the pollution as well. So i started to think about the future of our planet because at the rate that we are going there just might not be nothing left to live from. All the cars on the road dont help at all and can you imagine how many cars are there in the world today can you begin to see the cloud of smoke that is created and how hurtful it is to us. Where will we be in another 20 years from now and what effects will all this pollution have on the planet earth. What will the future look for our youth, how will the living conditions be for our future especially with all these new nations growing at a fast rate and the industrial way of life spreading fast. I really hope the leaders of the world can come up with some type of solution for this epidmic that is spreading like wild fire because the future is not looking like a bright, at all.

I was reading an article on china and how its taking over the world and how is that bad or good for the United States. China is becoming a economic super power but unlike the United States it's doing it through a soft veiw of the world. They are doing business with countries the U.S. would not. They are making deals with countries in Africa, Asia, South America since they are becoming so big their need for oil is on high demand and with this look they are making alot of deals arcoss with a blind eye on human rights. China in the past tried to stay in the shade but do to their growth natural resources are on high demand. China has invested close to $46.3 billion in 2005 it is small compare to the U.S. but they are becoming much larger by the day at a very fast rate. We here in the U.S. have felt the effects of china through the out sourcing jobs and the less expensive merchandise that is produce over seas. Like it was said in the article"china walks softly but carries a big checkbook.

All i could say was wow. It rained tonight like i never seen it before, the city got cleaned up a bit. It first started with lighting from a far distance and then little by little it started to rain, and then it came down hard. The thing was that i was driving in the rain and i could see not a thing. The only thing i could see was the tail lights of the cars in front of me and i used that to guide me in a straight line. On top of that i had no A/C so i had to close the windows and the heat in the car was inmense. The windows were getting fogging so it made it even harder for me to see, i was driving about 20 miles per hour over the city bridge. The car has tints so it was hard to see and find parking ,but i did get lucky and found a spot. The good thing about the rain was that it watered the city and cooled down the temperature ,so it was pretty nice.

But ill tell that rather be the A/C than this heat cause it gets sweaty after a while.

This topic really hurts my heart because my country is fighting people that were with in the country from the begining, people who are defending their homeland. The United States has information about our emeny and their location. This info. that i talk about is presahwa a tribal area where the leader of our emeny is hiding out and his soldiers. These are the people that our soldiers should be fighting the real emeny well known as al-qeada. All we are doing is giving them to to regroup and grow and become stronger.

I recently try to go on a diet even though i weigh 140 lbs its not so much a diet to lose weight but to get and stay much healthier. The things that i've been eating are not so great for me like buger king or wendy's all these fast food places and that includes chinese as well. I've been trying to stay away from meat but the problem is that i feel weak at times like my body is missing something. I would take a guess and it is probably iron that im missing in my system. Im trying to eat more vegies and fruits and trying to eat fish which is much better for me. It's like that saying goes you are what you eat. Our health should be the most important thing to us because without it we have nothing regardless the money you might have. But there is something that i must confess and that is that i smoke cigarettes which is the worst thing a human can do to them self . I must say that i stop smoking for about a year and half but do to some streeful situations im back on it. This diet that i talk about is just more than losing weight it's a diet for my health.

The race is on when it comes to sports mainly talking about baseball and the most watch team is the New York yankees and the Boston red sox there is alot going on with the mets as well. So you can hear everyone talking about which team might take it or what team is likely to lose the race for the wild card. It's pretty funny how all these people think they are sports experts and how they they think the future will look. As for me im just hoping to see any New York team at the end and maybe be able to win it all that would be nice. I like to watch sports but im not as crazy as some people i know because it can get pretty hairy when people argue over these teams that really are not doing much for you, while they are making millions. But it's nice to watch the abilities of these indivduals as they play just about any sport, it is a great talent to be blessed with. This weekend should be very interesting because there are going to be some good games going on, so lets wait and see as the sport fever is rising.

I recently was in downtown manhattan in the area of soho i was there for my job and it was so interesting being surrounded in such a historical place. I just loved how the the buildings were made back in the days with all the diferent designs and some of the small streets in between the larger streets. I can just imagine how the city would look back in the 1930's how beautiful the cars that were used and how the people dressed back then. It is so amazing how these buuildings are still standing and how people live in them with all the history they hold, ive seen pictures of downtown like Mulberry st. or canal and it is breath taking that people and times have change so much. I recently visited the old st. patrick catherdal on mott st. and it was like i traveled years in the past to when the church was first built in 1809 it was the first church in New York City alot of the people back then were irish and the diferent pastors meet there to hold services, what history it holds.

This is the way we try to react because we don't want those same feelings to come back again especially when they were negative feelings. We as people sometimes act on our emotions and this is what can cause us to make even more mistakes and desicions and have or give us bad results.

Sometimes you can be surfing the internet and run into some type of deals that catch the eye and sound really good. But the problem is that there are people who want to scam you and steal your idenity and that could result in a very big mess. The people who set up these web sites are real smart because they make it seem so sweet of a deal and then they will ask you for information that can lead to your personal information be stolen and be use for many things like purchasing all types of items or even committing crimes on top of a crime. The internet is a hole for these type of crimes to be committed and they are waiting for many victims. This is why you should never give out any personal info over the phone or the internet.

Love is not easy

Love can really be hurtful especailly when you have love for someone but the love is not given in return. The things a person will do when they are in love it's not easy a person will almost do anything to express their emotion. Sometimes you are so much in love that in a blink of an eye you are there for the one you love, but what sometime happens is that one can forget about yourself in the mist of all this emotion. This can become a problem because you begin to lose the responsibility that you are suppose to up hold. What can also be difficult is when that person you love doesn't love you back even if its a little bit, this can really hurt a person and makes everthing so hard. Love is so hard and a feeling that we try to make sense of but we can't, this is why love is not easy.

I've been so busy that i could not clean for a few days and the dust piled up on me. I had to open my balcony door and wear a mask to protect myself from the dust. Once i sweep the dust up and pass the mop with some good smell solution the floor was shiney as could be. The best part is when i put a wax on the floor cause it gives it that extra shine. I've been thinking about getting the floor strip and wax so it can have the permitted shine the only problem is that it cost about $1000 and thats pretty steep.I like to have the floor looking so shiney and clean that i could sleep on it, now thats clean.

The math problem i dealt with today was one of sort of basic math it took me a while to get through it but i did it. After many trys i got the solution to and the best part was that i understood everything about the math problem. I like to think and work my brain cause its like an excrise that will help develop my mind in the long run. Im taking a math class now that deals with alot of formulas, its statistics. Its fun but there is alot of reading that goes along with that and understanding.

The van was a totally new experience to me. when i thought i had to spend money that i dont even have the lord gave me a helping hand. I decide to go under the van and connect the hose that looked out of placed and put it together. I inserted the key and wow the van started up i was so happy that i didnt have to spend any money. But as i crossed the 59 street bridge the car shut off on me again and i was so worried but i directed the traffic to go around me and got under there again and made the same connection. I had a feeling like alot of money would have to be spent because i would have to take it to a mechanic. which i did but he only charge me $60 for the whole piece which included a whole new gas filter. Now that was not so bad a price for what i thought was going to spent on the toll truck from the city to Queens and then for the mechanic to check the problem out and charge me for the part i would need ,it all turned out ok.
The van made it home in peace and a large amount of money was not spent.

What a day ,after i left school i had to run to take my mother to Long Island and then i had to take a t.V. i bought for a friend as a gift back to circuit city in rego park Queens coming from Soho Manhattan. The t.v. had problems and it was not working properly. So once i picked up my friend from her mothers house and then to her apartment i had to wrap the t.v. in blankets because she threw the box out. So finally i was on my way with the new t.v. in the box like around 9:30 pm right on 2nd ave by 43 st the van turned off right in the middle of the street with all that New York traffic honking like crazy, on top of that there was a strong smell of gasoline. I guess a hose broke and oil and gas started to leak. Thank to the Lord almighty two guys from no where gave me a hand to push the van to the side of the road. So i decide to wait to see if the van would cool down and try to restarted and i did and nothing happen it just started to leak. so after waiting allthis time i took a cab with my friend and the t.v. to Soho cause it was getting late. I had to leave the van in the city and i have up to monday to move it or get it tolled away, but the problem is that i really have no money and the van is not mine, what a mess. i had to take the train home form Soho and i just got in. I am so tried and i have to wake up in 4 hours , im going on no sleep. I hope i can get out of this mess.

Well the day started out extremely early about 4:30- in the morning. I had to drive my cousin to the airport because he's going to Texas for vacation with the family. I then had to pick my little niece and drive her to dance class but before that take her to mcdonald's to eat breakfast. This all affected my time balance because i ended up about 20 minutes late to class and im a person who does anything and everything to be on time when it comes to things that are really important to me. The class seems pretty fun ,even thought i have a little catching up to do i love to express myself in writing. Another thing is that in every class i learn something new like in english class a student wrote about shea butter, im going to purchase some shea butter for my hair and skin now. Im also having second thoughts about bottle water which a fellow student in class wrote an eassy about, which has giving me something to really think about because im a very big believer in bottled water. Well the day has started and i have alot of things to do so i will keep you post all through the day.
